Timeless dress, incredible fabric
This dress feels so incredible. The fabric has some weight to it but the will silk combo is woven so that it has a little stretch. I love the length and the fit. Bought a size up because I wanted to be extra comfy. Only problem is that the pearl (which is lovely) detached from the clip attachment because the ring separates when you pull it (feels cheap for such a nice dress).

Very unusual fit
Fabric is lovely, length is stylish. I am high-waisted yet this dress is almost but not quite empire on me. The bodice has no shape for a woman's figure making it feel as if it is compressing the breasts. Because of the odd location of where the skirt meets the bodice, it looks like a maternity dress for a very tall, thin fashion model.

Versatile LBD
The material doesn’t wrinkle as I had to pack it for travel. It looked so nice with heels and flats. Really well made.
